Apologies. I was a little sore about my voice being suggested merely for karaoke... but since then I've changed my mind. I'd love to go to karaoke. Do you know a place?

[horrifictie]

NOT YET.
I AM ON THE HUNT HOWEVER.
ALSO IT TURNS OUT I DON'T REALLY KNOW ANY MUSIC FROM THIS REALITY.
WHICH MAKES THE PROSPECT OF SINGING HARDER.

[variantl1130]

Do keep me updated.
Have you heard of Spotify? I've been using it to bring myself up to speed on local modern music. You've got to hear Billie Eilish if you haven't already.

[horrifictie]

I HAVE NOT.
THANK YOU FOR THIS KNOWLEDGE.
IS BILLIE EILISH, IN YOUR OPINION, *DISCO*?

[variantl1130]

I wouldn't say so. Is disco what you're into?

[horrifictie]

IT'S ALL I AM INTO.
THAT AND DEPRESSINGLY SAD BANGERS.

[variantl1130]

You're in luck, because disco is a few decades old around here. I'm willing to bet it's VERY popular at karaoke bars. Listen to this.

[Attached is a link to a Spotify playlist.]

[horrifictie]

YOU ARE ONE OF THE MOST HELPFUL PEOPLE I HAVE MET SO FAR.
I WILL HAVE TO REPAY YOU FOR THIS WEALTH OF KNOWLEDGE.
I DON'T KNOW HOW, BUT I WILL.

[variantl1130]

I'll call in a favor when I'm in need... Though I suppose I need to know who you are if I ever need to call it in. I know your name is Tequila and that you were at the barbecue, but not much else.

[horrifictie]

I AM TEQUILA SUNSET.
MESSAGE ME WHEN YOU ARE IN NEED.
I WILL RIDE INTO TOWN AND RUN THROUGH FIRE AND BULLETS TO BE AT YOUR SIDE.

[variantl1130]

I'll bite. I'm in need of a glass of wine. Bring it to Bonnie's, room 12.

[horrifictie]

IS THERE A PREFERENCE FOR WINE?
RED, WHITE, ANOTHER COLOR I AM UNAWARE OF EXISTING.

[variantl1130]

As long as it's expensive, it's fine.

[horrifictie]

OH.
IT WILL NOT BE EXPENSIVE.
I AM VERY POOR AND ALCOHOL COSTS A SMALL FORTUNE IN THIS REALITY.

[variantl1130]

There's a bottle of Grgich Hills in the kitchen, just bring that up with a few glasses.

[horrifictie]

VERY WELL.
BUT ONLY FOR YOU.
I'M CURRENTLY NOT DRINKING ON ACCOUNT OF ALCOHOLISM.

[Two texts in rapid succession. First text:]

Then bring it up with one glass.

[Second text:]

Sorry, that's insensitive, isn't it? Don't worry about the wine. I mostly just want to put a face to your name.

[horrifictie]

[ there's a minute of pause, unlike the other texts that came rapid, and then- ]

LEAVE YOUR ROOM.
THEN TURN RIGHT.
